"I choose to love you in silence, for in silence i find no rejection" fav quote from Rumi❤

"Open your hands, if you want to be held", this quote from Rumi changed my perspective on life.
How so? And how do you interpret this quote?
Wow! Thanks for the wonderful quote.
@@shabbirmufaddalone interpretation would be- A person has to be in a state of surrender and vulnerability to receive love and care.
@@divyanshsahu4381I would add to this and say that one should offer to hold another if he is to expect/wish for someone else to do so. If everyone wants but does not offer, nobody is satisfied.
Great quote
Beautiful
Hi. Iranian here.
Just to give you a perspective of how amazing Mowlana (known to westerners as Rumi) is, always remember that about of 80% of his linguistic cleverness is lost when translated from Persian to other languages, and his poetry still sounds out of this world. Reading it in the original Persian will make you lose your mind. If you really love his work, I definitely recommend you to learn Persian, and other contexts on Tasavof etc. You'll unlock an another world, reading his poetry in Persian.
And after that, you can read many more classical poetry in Persian, like Hafiz, Sa'di, Ferdowsi, etc (the list is really long.) I hope one day, Persian language and literature will be more available as a curriculum in schools around the world.
How much Persian would one have to learn to read his works? And can you understand classical poetry with knowing only modern Persian?
@@libraryitemlimit2730Just know that the literature is so advanced that the native speakers themselves don't understand most of it without proper interpretation. It's like a whole other language
@libraryitemlimit2730 i would say it's easier compare to native english speakers trying to understand Shakespeare
It still amazes me how almost everything attributed to "islamic' advancement in science, technology, literature and arts is actually persian in origin.
Yeah, you are overreeacting, the same thing can be said abou absolutely every other writer, why would you learn a language just for a writer when for sure there is a same worth writer who wrote in your language

We studied that one of the fundamentals of philosphy is, regarding contradictions, a statement and its denial cannot both be true at the same time, and then when you study Mollana you understand that, to quote Tagore, the contradiction of existence merge themselves and are lost in love; Only in love are unity and duality not at variance. Love must be one and two at the same time.... and so in the context of love....this is true and in the context of this world no two contradictory statements can be true at once... that field Mollana is talking about is the united field of love!

That is not written by rumi. It was written by an Azerbaijani poet called Nizaumi Gajnavi
@@jenkar5716 My brother in christ, Ganjavi was Persian.
There isn't a single poetry of him in Turkish.

Rumi being described as the Moon which reflects the light of Shams' Sun...

As an Iranian, I'm happy with how you depict this beautiful story with intricacies in only 6 minutes, and to my surprise, you are a non-profit institution. The work that a lot of money, famous characters, and cinematic equipment couldn't do the near. Thanks for your determination to spread knowledge and love❤
Is it that you didnt know love until you watched this animatic video??

"The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart."
~Rumi
Hey are you from Pakistan
Aoa....❤Absolutely right !!!!.....❤
I went to Konya in central Turkey and saw Rumi’s tomb. And I also saw his followers’ unique way of dancing. Thanks for the video for providing more context
Dervish*
Just come to truth man. Islam is the truth. May Allah guide you to the truth.
Fun fact: "Rumi" is his alias which translates to "the Roman". This is because during those times, Middle Eastern peoples referred to Anatolia as "Al Rum", meaning "Rome". And since Rumi was living in Anatolia when he got especially popular, he was referred to as such.
Funny how anything related to love ultimately gets associated with the Romans.
But the funnier fact is: the one we know as "RUMI" is neither Anatolian nor Turk! He was Persian and his poems are also in Persian !
Likewise, the name of the state that ruled Anatolia at that time was Sultanate of Rum. Later that usage decreased and the name Turqia popularised. Modern country gets its name from here.
@@dovepiranha6543 that is indeed correct, however it does not make him any less important to Turkic history as well.
The state in which he has lived was also called Seljuk of Rum
Couple of sayings come to mind. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" and "A glass half empty or half full".
Agreed ❤
😮😮😮
Wait, those sayings are from him?😮
@@solar0windyessir
@@zhangzongchang1057 Wow, I never realised! Thought these sayings were more of a western thing.
I can't fathom we have access to such incredible art and information, with phenomenal visuals, beautiful narration and jaw-dropping esthetics, telling the stories of a long gone poet and mystic from a far remote place for most of us.
And all that, from the confort of our homes, without paying or any efforts.
What a time to be alive. Thank you Ted-Ed.
3:18 "seeing himself as the moon reflecting the light of shams' sun" What makes this line all the more poetic is the fact that shams in Arabic literally translates to sun
the final frame of the tree. many of you dont understand the reference, but in Persian, that tree is called "beed-e Majnoon".
The artist of this video is amazing for putting that reference out in the video! well done reza!
As a Turk living in Konya, I grew up with the teachings of Rumi, and more importantly, the ambiance that the Mevlana shrine adds to the city is very different and special. Even when I visit Rumi's grave, different feelings still arise inside me.
Your are very lucky to live there I wish to visit one day
To truly love others, you first need to love yourself. This means accepting your flaws, celebrating your strengths, and treating yourself with kindness and compassion. When you love and value yourself, you can offer genuine love without needing others to fill your emotional gaps.
Doesn’t mean you dont feel lonely
"I am the servant of the Qur'an as long as I have life.
I am the dust on the path of Muhammad, the Chosen one.
If anyone interprets my words in any other way,
I deplore that person and I deplore his words."
~Rumi
Beautiful.
All praise belongs to Allah.
Alhamdulillah
He probably had to defend himself like this all the time, based on what the video said and how the conservatives see and treat Sufis.
@@RedIria Rumi deplores you and deplores your words
@@kashurintellectual5623 like conservatives deplored the Sufis? You make my point.
Most of the genius of poetry is lost in translation, and yet the works of Rumi, Hafez, and other Persian poets are mind-blowing in other languages. Imagine reading them in Persian… Perhaps the greatest privilege Iranians have by birth is to read the work of Iranian poets in its original Persian.
And Tajikistanis and Afghans. Persian ≠ Iranian.
@@Analysis_Paralysis totally agree my friend and fellow Persian :)
“The wound is the place where the light enters you” - this quote from Rumi changed my perspective of pain

Happy Birthday! 🥳🎂☀🌈
Happy Birthday, May love find you
Happy birthday!
At a very tumultuous time in my life due to the manipulation of specific family members, discovering Rumi helped me reframe my attachments from outward to inward! This catapulted me to a more solid positive direction! Thank you Rumi!
The meaning of love is found deep within. Because what you see is what you receive. So if you fall for the wrong person, fear not. For if the eyes are meant to see real beauty on the inside and not superficial surface that cracks when you go deeper into the altar.
Agreed
Wow😮
I wish everyone here all the love in the world ❤
Thank you very much. ❤

"Nobody can ever measure the power of love and the consequences of it's power." words of a wise man.
Yeag? 😮
Dr. Taqi Usmani said soooo true about the love:
محبت کیا ہے دل کا درد سے معمور ہو جانا
متاعِ جاں کسی کو سونپ کر مجبور ہو جانا.
Meaning. "What is love? It's becoming filled with the pain of the heart, It's being compelled to give someone the treasure of life."
قدم ہے راہِ الفت میں تو منزل کی ہوس کیسی
یہاں تو عین منزل ہے تھکن سے چور ہو جانا
Meaning : On love's path, why yearn for the distant goal's embrace?Here, the journey's end lies in the solace of weary space."
بسا لینا کسی کو دل میں دل ہی کا کلیجہ ہے
پہاڑوں کو تو بس آتا ہے جل کر طور ہو جانا
Meaning "Embracing someone in the heart is akin to securing the very essence of one's soul,Mountains may crumble to ashes, only through the fervent blaze of transformation."(When Moses(as) attempted to see the God mountain crumbled but not him.)

"Keep breaking your heart until it opens" are amongst a few gems of Maulana Rumi, the great Persian mystical poet. His works have stood the test of time and shall continue to shelter us like an invincible fortress...good work Ted-ed. Your graphic and animation design team is impeccable, as always. Big fan
It's important to note that Rumi was a devout muslim his entire life. Once his poetry got introduced to the west, they have tried to detach him (and continue to do so) from his religion. HIs original works is not in English so when it is translated, it is secularized to leave out any mention of Religion or his deep roots to his faith, a truly sinister act.
It wouldn't be relatable if they didn't
And he wasn't from RUMA he born in. Balkh and Iran he was Persian and

Beautiful poem
Hmm..
No sh1t.
"Thank you for creating this magnificent and excellent work. In addition to the content of this work, which fills everyone with love for Persian literature, it would have been better if it clearly mentioned the Iranian origin of Rumi and Shams. Turkey was merely their place of residence and where they passed away."
I think I’m so lucky that I’m a native Farsi speaker and can understand their poems easily and with all my heart ❤️
My great friend at work recommended to me “The 40 Rules of Love” by Elif Shafak, introducing me to Sofism and it’s literature. Little did he knew that I would love it too much and dive deeper.
Bless you Yassine wherever you are.
I read a couple of Rumi's poem multiple times, the beauty was every time I read one, I found new meaning..
It's legendary ❤
Absolutely fantastic video. While the animation and narration were fantastic as always the centrepiece for me was how you curated and taught the legacy of Rumi. As a Persian who's grown up in the west I have always been told about Rumi and my culture but to see it explained in a way that I can others can better understand brings me immense joy. Thank you very much Ted-Ed.
I LOVE this animation style!!!
Me too
I discovered Rumi's poetry through the book "The Forty Rules of Love" by Elif Shafak. It's a beautiful book that brought me a sense of peace and reminded me of the wonderful things in this world. Highly recommend 💗
When you expect „how to love“ but get a rumi biography …
True
The point is rumi's story serves as an example of someone who found the true meaning of love through devotional experience of the One, and how he used that to spread that message and look upon others with that same love.
I have been to Rumi's tomb in Konya last year and it was really, really, really cool. He's my absolute favorite poet and philosopher.
Great video for Persian most famous Poet, I strongly recommend to people of West to read Hafez, Saadi, Khayam, and other Persian poets that have been ignored in the world today because of Iran's culture bycott
Proud of Rumi , a big philosopher and poet. I understand his poem in deep level cause he was from my khorasan (today Afghanistan) where I was born so as him speaking same language.❤
I only knew of Rumi's existence because of one The Voidz's lyric: "Beyond ideas of right and wrong, there is a field. I will be meeting you there." But I didn't know there was so much behind him. Definitely going to do some research about him!
Thank you for teaching people about these historical figures can’t wait to see what historical figure you guys will do next much love from Iran
1:20 Thank you for not denying, like some Iranians, that Mawlana Jalaluddin Mohammad Balkhi originated from Afghanistan.
When you use the term "was" it means it was from the past in which Afghanistan was part of iran so when iranians say he was iranian just like al-kharazmi they aren't wrong because in that era there was no Afghanistan nor Iraq.
But you can’t claim and accept afghani refugees as you do with Mawlana? Why you discriminate them? Why can’t you think that they are part Iranian family who need help?

I am very lucky that I can read the poems of Rumi, Hafez, and Saadi in Persian and enjoy them
Coldplay used a snippet of Rumi’s poem, the Guest House, in their song Kaleidoscope. It’s so raw and beautiful, I sit and pause whenever I listen to it. “This being human is a guest house…”
Although I speak Persian, but I think for understand Maulana you need to be devoted. Your heart should be open and ready to understand its meaning. Maulana is like deepest ocean! I’ve tried to dive it many times before…didn’t really go that deep. Now I’m preparing myself to give myself another chance…❤
His full name was: Mawlana Jalal-e-din Mohammad Balkhi referring to his birth place "Balkh" which is located in the "Mazar Sharif" province of Afghanistan.
I am mesmerized by the animation on this video, so artful and intentional.
Mowlana was just one of the many Persian poets. There are many more that talked about spirituality from different angles. Each had different philosophies to follow.
Hafez is another one that is very respected globally as well. Gothe (German poet) was in love with his poetry. Iranians still use his poetry for fortune telling.
Saadi Carnot (The scientist who defined second law of thermodynamics) was name Saadi, because his dad loved Saadi's (Persian Poet) poetry. Current Farsi language owes a lot to Saadi as many our current proverbs are taken out of his book Golestan.
Ferdowsi wrote an epic, that is basically out unregistered history, and is very well known in Russia.
Thank you for this. Rumi is a whole world that many are blind to.
"I've read more than a hundred books

Love is one of the most intense feelings felt by man; another is hate. Forcing yourself to feel indiscriminate love is very unnatural. If you try to love everyone you only lessen your feelings for those who deserve your love. Repressed hatred can lead to many physical and emotional aliments. By learning to release your hatred towards those who deserve it, you cleanse yourself of these malignant emotions and need not take your pent-up hatred out on your loved ones.
"If you try to love everyone you only lessen your feelings for those who deserve your love"
I really needed to hear that. Such a profound meaning in only a few words.
If your love isnt large enough to cover everyone, it isnt magnanimous and grandiose enough to be called love! Its only selfishness and restriction on the other.
@@shubhmishra3338 That's pure rubbish.
@@shubhmishra3338 That's a very saintly thought but we are just humans we feel pain, we get tired and confused. Loving everyone and not being reciprocated is something not everyone can deal with (doesn't mean we have to hate them for the unreciprocated love but we can be neutral and just move on). In all, this concept of love is a highly opinionated and subjective matter. There is no right answer.
@@geeky.glee. agree but I try to love everyone
I've been looking for a saying by Rumi, for years. I wonder if anyone can help me. I can only convey the gist of it. I may not remember a single word. Here goes......There will come a time when all the pain and suffering of life will be understood and will amount to nothing compared to this......Thank you.
My first love started...when I was born in a mother's stomach...
It is non other than my mother and father...❤

It was very successful. A small detail: the hands of people who meditate while spinning are not like that. During the sema ceremony, dervishes hold one hand up and the other down, which has a deep meaning.This pose symbolizes the idea of "receiving from the Divine and giving to people."
The right hand looks up (towards the sky): It represents receiving grace and wisdom from the Divine, from God (Allah).
The left hand looks down (towards the ground): It symbolizes transferring this divine grace and blessing to the world, to humanity.
This pose embodies the concepts of humility, generosity and meditation. A dervish does not only seek knowledge and blessing for himself, but also shares the inspiration, love and wisdom he receives from the Divine with all humanity.
“You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean, in a drop.”
Love from Turkiye, the home of Rumi.
Being able to read his poems is enough reason to learn farsi. It's an unexplainble, unbleivable and unique experience you would not find it anywhere in the entirety of world's literature. He was a holy genius!
omg this animation style is amazing
Very amazing I was reading Rumi ‘s poems and the algorithm brought Rumi to my screen.
Incredible lesson and incredible animation. I am moved. Thank you for this
“The heat of passion swirls from the sea, low tide, high tide, pounding toward want. True love is standing at the shore forever in a ghostly haunt.” NSB
Phenomenal! Shams and Rumi's story will forever be iconic thanks to Elif Shafak's "40 Rules Of Love"
Shams and Rumi's story always have been and will forever be iconic thanks to Divan-e-Shams, not some random writer's opinion on them. the number of people who love Rumi dwarfs the number of people who have read that book.
That quote hit hard 😢
The animation is amazing
Although it irked me that the dervishes were shown dancing with both hands up in the air. In reality, the right hand points toward the sky and the left one points to the earth; reflecting a ritual of taking from god and giving to the Earth.
They do change their hand positions from time to time though
The animation/ illustrations are fantastic!

Such a beautiful piece of animation this video is.
The visuals in this video are on another level 👏🏼
At 2:03, the idea of reunification with God is mentioned. It's important to clarify that in Islam, the concept of merging with God is considered contrary to the core teachings of Tawhid (the oneness of God), which is why it is viewed as the Greatest Sin.
Rumi, while renowned for his profound and influential poetry, was associated with Extreme Sufism, and holds views and practices considered unorthodox by all Muslim scholars. thus labeling him as kafir.
Great point
This is false. Rumi was held in great regard by many islamic scholars. His poetry is sometimes vague and some people misinterpret his views. Rumi himself was an islamic scholar who held orthodox views following the Hanafi madhab.
Your perspective is appreciated.
But please do not paint your personal/regional opinion as representative of majority of the Muslims world.
Jazak-Allah.
"Out beyond ideas, of wrongdoings and rightfulness,

I feel weird whenever i think of shams of tabrizi, i have very great respect for him and i at times felt like i had qualities in me which was in him too and it makes me feel very lost in this world.... I always loved rumi but my love for shams is on another level
❤Excellent and beautiful PERSIAN poetry. You should Know Persian to understand a little bit of the sea of spirituality in Molana's Poems
How beautifully you narrated rumi's love
His poems are so beautiful and lovely while in persian, but when they translate it it's like something is missing.
The original poems have some sort of unique holy happiness.
The BGM especially towards the end
So pure and serene 🌼
As a big fan of this channel I feel like I just have to say I'm kinda disappointed you didn't read the poems in its original language the translation made it shallow. Would have been so much better if the translation was written rather than doing the opposite especially that I noticed you love to hire native VA. Anyway, this is AMAZING video and really you can tell a lot of effort was put in it. Thank you!
Love's goal is only (to experience) the attraction exerted by the Beloved.

Come out of the circle of time And into the circle of love.
Ah love yourself first and utmost and you will be happy don’t expect love from anyone it’s high probability you’ll be disappointed, you are the only one that want your happiness and peace
I want your happiness and peace
I want you to have happiness and peace. I hope for you to love others like you love yourself
I'm amazed! What intense story telling. Beautiful ❤
